Hi, Artist,
Becky has been married to this man for almost 30 years, and I don't see her changing in her attitudes...in fact, I think she's afraid he will find someone else! and has even mentioned that a couple of times.
I'm glad I didn't go, anyway! Instead, I just got back from a trip to Louisville, KY to see the twins, and had much fun.
The rocks on Lake Superior, both the Canada side and Mich. UP are really inspiring to me. I might have to rent that van (or find a commercial shipper from up there) if I choose to go. Right now, I'm planning a trip to Kelley's Island on Lake Erie to camp solo and pick up rocks while enjoying my peace!
